Warwickshire | 10 miles | K10/10C
David Mead (Team M.I. Racing Townsend Vehicle Hire) and Jude Mansfield (Birmingham Midland Cycling Club) claimed victory at the Eileen Sheridan Memorial 10-Mile Time Trial on 10 August 2025, hosted by Coventry Cycling Club in Warwickshire. Mead, with his fifth win of 2025, broke the 20-minute barrier with 19:46, while Mansfield topped the women’s category with 26:36, in a race honouring local legend Eileen Sheridan, a time trialling and record-breaking icon of the 1940s and 1950s.
The K10/10C, a 10-mile looped circuit starting north of Frankton, heading east, turning westbound at London Road, and finishing on Oxford Road, offered a fast challenge. Mead, continuing his stellar season with wins at Royal Sutton, Droitwich, Wyre Forest, and Rugby RCC 10s, outpaced Ryan Witchell (George Fox Cycling Solutions ) (20:58) and Edward Anderson (Banbury Star Cyclists' Club) (21:10). Ash Miles (ABR Cycle Team) led the road bike category with 23:46. In the tandem event, Chris Ward (WardPerformanceUK.com) and Gillian Thorne (WardPerformanceUK.com) clocked 25:44.
Mansfield secured the women’s win, finishing ahead of Susan Oldham (Bicester Millennium CC) (27:25) and Lezley Moran (Redditch Road & Path CC) (32:39). The event, named for Sheridan—who broke all Women’s Road Records Association marks, including Land’s End to John o’ Groats—drew a competitive field celebrating her legacy.
The road bike category showcased grit, with Ash Miles (ABR Cycle Team) leading at 23:46, a strong performance among TT-heavy competition. Lezley Moran (Redditch Road & Path CC, 32:39) was the sole women’s road bike finisher, placing third overall in the women’s category. The category highlighted the growing appeal of road bike time trialling, with riders tackling the K10/10C’s loops under favourable conditions.
The event celebrated talent across age groups, with Veteran categories (40+ in 5-year bands) showcasing endurance. In the open field, David Mead (AG 45-49) led overall, while Edward Anderson (AG 50-54) topped his band with 21:10. Eddie Humphreys (Nottingham Clarion CC) (AG 60-64) won his with 21:37, Joe Murray (Team M.I.
